    Gear Ratio Help

    Thanks Kenny! I don't know why I didn't think of that. :thumbsup: Oh wait a minute, yes I do too. It was too simple of a solution. I always have to over analyze everything! :roflol: Thanks a bunch though. Now I just have to see if I can find the gears that I need.

    Gear Ratio Help

    I could, but then I would have to pay more for it than a chain clutch locally, and then pay for shipping too. I also thought that a belt driven clutch was less desireable because the belt will wear and stetch over time. The biggest thing that I wanted to know was how to determine the sprocket...

    Gear Ratio Help

    That is what I thought too. You had my hopes up there for a little while though! So any input on how to figure the speed if I have two different geat ratios?

    Gear Ratio Help

    The guy that I bought the cart off of bought it and took the motor off and put it on his rototiller. I asked him if he had the clutch that he pulled off it when he put it on his tiller but he said "No, what you see is what you get". Oh well I guess. I am pretty good when it comes to...

    Gear Ratio Help

    Okay, so I am getting ready to build up the 2-seater rolling chassis that I just bought used for $50! I am trying to build it for my son and daughter to ride on, so I don't want it going too fast because of quite a few obstacles in the yard and I don't want them going too fast either. The kart...

    Where to mount the clutch?

    I just bought a two-seater rolling chassis for $50 last week! :thumbsup: I plan on taking some time to fix it up a little bit and then putting a H.F. blue engine on it. I am trying to sell the single seater that I just got running with the blue engine on it so I can get more money out of it...

    Help with my Clutch?

    Okay, so I am really new to the karting world. I had one as a kid, but my dad's friend who owned a Stihl chainsaw shop did all of our work to it for us. So, here it goes. I have a Manco Interceptor cart that I put a H.F. Blue 6.5 hp motor on. The clutch seems to be working, but I suspect...

    Help with H.F. Blue - Locked up?

    Well I do agree with all of you about telling them the least amount that you have to. I was told by the salesperson that if it broke in any way, no matter what happened to it, it was covered. I just noticed that on some of the paperwork that was given to me that it said "This is a one-time...

    Help with H.F. Blue - Locked up?

    Thanks for all of your input guys! I haven't had a chance to look at it again yet, but I hope to tonight. I will be sure to let you all know if that helps or not. I do have the warranty from H.F. for the 90 days and then I bought the extra 2 years too (cost me less than $14 for it!!!!). I...

    Help with H.F. Blue - Locked up?

    I just bought a H.F. blue motor last week and got it running on my little boys manco cart. He was showing off for his granny on Sunday and tipped it over on its side and rollcage. The motor ran for about 5-10 seconds before shutting off from lack of gas I'd guess. It didn't touch anything...

    Blue Madness!

    Hey guys! I am new here, but found your forum by searching for input on the HF blue motors. I just bought a used Manco Interceptor go-cat for my son and found out that the carb was bad. Ended up buying the Blue Motor for it instead of a new carb (it was cheaper that way). Anyway, the point...
